I was briefly a paste-up artist (ha, me an "artist"!) and the transition he's talking about was indeed huge. I remember, later, doing layout in Quark and physically delivering the disks to a print shop!

Great stuff.

Only 29 days until Christmas and the robots come back. Now's a good time to make sure you have plenty of cocoa in your bunker.
